Removal of Reservation on Process Order Locking

Hi Experts,
I'm unable to clear the reserved materials under a Process Order after Locking the same. Is it possible to release the reserved material after locking an Order?
Regards
Subhasis

Hi subhasis,
If your order is only released then do the Read Master Data again for the order without doing the material availability check and save the order.
Check and revert

Process Order Locking

Dear Gurus,
Am working in a FMCG environment.
Confirmation of operations is required every 15-20 minutes. There are multiple operations in an order.
Also, we are using Handling Unit functionality for palletization process. The Handling Unit creation and GR has been automated via a interface. Frequency of Handling unit creation is - 1 HU every 4-5 minutes for an order.
Am facing a problem of process order locking while carrying out the above mentioned activity.
Am thinking of....
1. Order confirmation instead of operation wise confirmation (client hell bent on carrying out operation wise confirmation - real time entries at the shop floor)
2. Entry of relevant confirmation data, once every shift (post processing)
3. PI Sheet - Function module (would like to avoid this )
Can you kindly suggest some solution?
Thanks and regards,
Tarang

Hi Tarang,
Just a quick thought... Maybe CORR could be of help. What you could do is, set up the data in excel sheet in the same format as the one in CORR, i.e. the columns matching & then just copy paste from excel to CORR. This could help reduce the time required significantly.
Alternatively, you can look at BAPI's for confirmation via a Z report & upload the values.
Hope the above is helpful.

Vivek

Material reservation for process order

Dear PP experts,
We convert planned order to process order. Whenever a process order is created components in the process order get reserved, i.e. automatic reservation is created for the components in the process order.
Is it possible to exclude a selected material or a selected material type to avoid getting eserved whenever a process order is created?
Regards,
Prashant

Hi
Yes you can do that, go to material master of the material MRP 2 view and tick the Bulk Material check box so it will automatically set in the BOM item. So it will not create reservations.
If you want this same for material type you can use BULK material type.
Prerequisites:
Therefore planning for bulk materials should be consumption-based.
If bulk materials are subject to material requirements planning, you must create planned independent requirements for them.
Thanks

Edit Process order locked in ECC

Hi Experts,
I am saving process order from APO - /sapapo/rrp3 and the same proc order should ideally be updated in ECC - COR3 transaction.
This happens correctly when 'LOCKED BY WORKFLOW' status is initial in COR3.
And doesn't get updated in ecc when, this lock is set.
I am checking on a feasible solution to update proc order in ECC even when this lock is set.
Please share me any such experience.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Anil,
Please check this stuff from SAP Help.

Reservation on Process Order

Hello SAP Partners,
A process order creates a reservation for the materials consumption for the movement type 261. I wonder if it is possible that a process order may create an aditional reservation or one that can be used to transfer the materiales from one storage location to another and its consumption. The goal is that the materials needed for a process order have not need to be typed in the storahe location transfer. Any way to do this?
Thanks and Regards!

Hi Csaba,
In the transaction that you suggested: MF60, I see the materials transfer are done with 311 movement type. Is it possible to indicate somewhere for it to be done with the 313 movement?
Best Regards,
Patricia

Automatic Reservation at the time of process order creation

Hi Experts,
As you are aware, when we create a process order and save, system automatically generates the reservation and the reservation will be for movement type 261. My requirement is like this. When system creates reservation, system should consider for which order type the process order is created and create a reservation for other movement type also.
For eg. Iam having order type ZRRW. When system creates reservation at the time of order creation, system should check the order type and reservation should be created for a movement type Z11 instead of 261 in the normal case.
Is there any user exit for the same. Please let me know.
Else how can I post the goods issue with a movement type other than 261. MIGO is not accepting other movement types.
Anticipating your reply
Regards
Prathib

Hi Ayethebing,
Thanks for the reply. we created the new movement types inorder to use the SAP standard reports and get the different types of goods movements based on the different processes.
We can do the goods issue using the custom movement type through MB1A. But I was trying to use in MIGO and this is where system wont allow this.
In MIGO, system will do the goods issue based on reservation only. The reservation is created at the time of order creation and it uses movement type 261 irrespective of the order type.
I was trying to find out whether any option is there to use custom movement type to create reservation so that system would propose this movement type in MIGO for goods issue against process order.
This is an interesting case but unfortunately dont have any option of user exit or Badi. Only one user exit related to reservation is to change the str loc and back flush indicator.
@Sabine: Thanks for your reply. But the BADI that you provided wont serve the purpose.
Thanks
Prathib

Why reservation don't show decimal same as process order?

When i create process order 001 its require Mat.A 0.95 ZET, the problem is when see reservation at MB26 its whow order 001 require 1 ZET, Why it's don't show 0.95 as process order require?
Information: Base unit of Mat.A = SET, Unit of issue of Mat.A = ZET, alternative unit is 1 ZET = 1 SET.
In T-code CUNI, decimal places rounding of unit SET = blank, decimal places rounding of unit ZET = 4.
we wouldn't like to set decimal places rounding of unit SET = 4 because, they think its will impact to other material which use unit SET. for this reason we create new unit name "ZET"
Can any senior has solution to make reservation to show decimal when BOM use unit ZET.
or not have the way and back to set Mat.A to user unit SET in BOM and set decimal places rounding of unit SET = 4. but this way they concern about risk.

Dear,
Please try with the customizing settings in t.code " CUNI " ---> Units of Measurement
1.) Take your Units of measure, go to details Screen
2.)There u can see the entry Box with " Decimal Places". Type in u'r option and save.
This might solve u'r Query.

Process order reservation

Hello experts,
While doing process order confirmation in CORK, if final confirmations is done . The material resrevations dont get deleted .
How do we handle the pending reservations.
Example the order qty - 100 and final confirmation done for 80 , the order gets status of DLV and does not appear in MDO4.
Regards
ShankarR

Shankar,
If your Order quantity is 10 and you are doing a final confirmation with quantity 5 and you are activating the "Clear Reservations" box, then what system does is for all the components assigned to that operation for backflush(in your case order as you are doing CORK) it activates Final Issue check box.
What this means is, there would not be any more Issue againsts that reservation. After perrforming the Final Confirmation you can go to display order and in the Components Overview screen you can see check box for field Fls(Final Issue) is activated. This means this reservation is no longer valid for further goods Issue and you cannot see the requirement against this reservation for components in MD04.
Just to clarify your question system would not reduce the quantity of reservation from 10 to 5, Instead it would just activate the Final Issue Indicator, indicating that the reservation is closed and no longer required to be Issued.

Prasobh

Stop Creation of reservation while creating process orders....

Hi All,
THe requirement is to stop creation of reservations on creation of process order.
have done the configuration in order type dependent parameters to stop creation of reservations on creation of process order.
After this configuration the reservations have stopped appearing in the MMBE for components although there are reservation created.
The above case appears only when i am creating process orders manually through transaction COR1....But when process orders are created by converting Plann order then in this case although the order type is same there are reservations visible in the MMBE transaction for the components.
Request you to please guide through the reason for creation of reservations when a process order is created by converting a plan order.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Vinit

Hi All,
We are using the planning strategy 40 where in we produce only when the sales order is received.
For a material we are using SPK as stock transfer from other plant.
The requirement for this material is triggered due to 1)dependent reservation(as this component is used as a component to manufacture other material 2)Sales requirement for this material.
On MRP the requirement is transferred to the supplying plant and we receive the stock in our plant.
Now this stock is the total of requirement generated to fulfill the sales requirement and the consumption requirement.We cannot differentiate which stock was called in for sales order and which for fulfilling the production requirement of the superior material.
Whenever a production order for the superior material is created reservation for this material are created because of which the stock will not be available for creation of deliveries for sales orders.(This is because of the av checking rule)
Is there a way to differentiate these stocks.
We thought about creating MRP areas to manage the requirements differently but this will lead to creation storage locations and thus affect our global template.
Thus we thought of blocking of creation of reservations......this we thought as all the materials are already available by the time the process order is created so there is no point in creating reservations for the same.
Let m know if you need any further information .......Help me providing a proper solution to the issue.
Thanks in advance

Batch reservation & Allocation in process order

I am allocating batch to process order components(for active ingridient)While I am allocating the batch I am able to select the batch which has all of its quantity reserved,which is not desireble.Any solutions please??/
Eg.In MMBE my batch stock(say for batch AA11) is as follows:Unres stck 100 & reserves 100
If I am determing batch for a different process order where this component is used,I am able to select the same batch,even though it has no open quantities.
Please suggest

Hi Rele,
Please check in CO09 transaction for the availability of this batch stock whether it is free or confirmed to any other component like.

BAdI / User exit to remove GR indicator on co-product in process order

Dear PP Guru's,
Is there a BAdI or user exit that can automatically uncheck the GR boxes on the process order items ?
We need to clear the GR indicator AFPOD-WEPOS and may be to set AFPOD-WEAED (indicator that allows changes on GR indicator) for co-products (not header material) that have the same material number as header material.
In our process we need to manage more than one goods receipt batch in one process order. The batches are to be specified/generated in advance (at release, for example). We use co-product functionality for that. All batches are for the same header material. So, planning, goods movements and costing are to be done for the header material only. That's why we need to remove GR indicator from co-products (or some of them).

Hi,
Try this code..I have used memory pointers....
In the userexit <b>EXIT_SAPMM06E_012</b>
DATA lwa_ekpo LIKE bekpo.
data lw_field(50).
FIELD-SYMBOLS <t_xekpo> TYPE STANDARD TABLE.
IF sy-tcode = 'ME21'.
lw_field = '(SAPLMEPO)POT[]'.
ASSIGN (lw_field) TO <t_xekpo>.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
lw_field = '(SAPMM06E)POT[]'.
ASSIGN (lw_field) TO <t_xekpo>.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message e208(00) 'Couldn't find POT'.
endif.
endif.
loop at <t_xekpo> into lwa_ekpo.
Check the conditions..
example..
if ......
Check the GR indicator..
lwa_ekpo-WEBRE = 'X'.
<b>MODIFY <t_xekpo> from lwa_ekpo transporting WEBRE.</b>
endif.
endloop.
ENDIF.
Hope this helps..

Reservation of component Batch for Process order

Hi PP Guys,
I did the batch determination of a particular component batch in process order, but when I try to create another process order system proposing the available qty without considering the earlier reserved batches.
I want to view only the batches which are free from any reservations during batch determination in process order.
Example: If Batch "A" having qty 1000 kg in unrestricted stock.
I have created a process order and did the batch determination for the quantity of 900 kg, when I create another process order for the same material system should propose only the available component batch qty of 100 kg only, but system still proposing the un-restricted available qty of 1000 kg.
Please advise me the solution to map the scenaio.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Purna

Hi,
Check whether Reservation is included in your checking control(T.Code OPJJ).
If not then correct it by activating check box for Include reservations.

Movement 262 against a Process Order and a RESERVATION number.

Dear PP experts,
Our raw materials are reels of paper. Our inventory supplies the production with a reel e.g. 1000kg and posts a 261 against this order (and against the reservation).
By the end of the production phase any remaining raw material qties are returned to the inventory and a 262 against this order is posted (but the reservation is not updated).
This causes the withdrawn qties shown at many pp info views to be *incorrect8. While the post goods movements lists are correct.
A MIGO for 262 and with reference to a reservation is not possible.
I did post finally a 262 against a reservation through COR6 and having the u201Cbackflushingu201D indicator on at the material view (process order material view). The u201CConfirmation of process order create: Goods movementu201D view had all info and MOV. TYPE 261 active and I was able to change it to 262 and saved it. All updates seems to be ok and withdrawn qties are the same with the sum of u201Cpost goods movements listu201D.
IS THERE A WAY TO POST SUCH A MOVEMENT (262 AGAINST A RESERVATION) BUT NOT FROM COR6 (AVOIDING TO SAVE A CONFIRMATION TOO) ? Let's say to use only the screen of "Post Goods movement" of COR6 wo the 1st screen of confirmations? Or any other Tcode that might exist.
Thanks in advance for yr suggestions.
Kind regards,
Elly

Hi Elly,
To return via reservation number is not available in SAP, however, there is a workaround. When perform Goods Issue via Reservation (Mvt 261), there will be a material document get created. This material document will be used as reference to perform Goods Return (Mvt 262) in which it will update the respective reservation qty.
You may then use tcode: MBRL - Return Delivery or tcode: MIGO with A02 Return Delivery, R02 Material Document.
1) Enter the Material Document that was used for the Goods Issue via reservation.
2) Be careful here, select ONLY the required material(s) (by default, all materials issued via the material document is selected) and their respective qty for return.
3) Check and Save it.
Hope these steps help.
Cheers!

Reprocessing of Production order/Process order

Hi friends,
Can anybody explain me what is reprocessing of production order.
Plz explain me in a step by step manner.
Thanks very much.
Kind Regards

Hi Arun Kumar,
Reprocessing
Use
In the area of confirmation, you can separate confirmation entry from processing. As a result, errors may occur when confirmations, or the processes that follow them, are posted. You can eliminate these errors by reprocessing them. The following reprocessing functions are available:
Confirmations
Actual costs
Goods movements
Reprocessing Confirmations :
Use
You use this function to process confirmations for which errors occurred as they were being automatically processed. With this function, you can either delete or, if possible, eliminate the errors and post the confirmations again.
Confirmations with errors can arise if they were entered in one of the following ways:
Upload from a PDC system (see Upload)
Online entry ( Fast Entry or Mass Processing)
Entry via BAPI interface
Possible errors include:
Order does not exist (for entry via PDC system, BAPI interface)
Order was locked
Sequence of time events incorrect
Individual capacity does not exist
Work center or personnel number does not exist
Features
Reprocessing has the following advantages:
Selection
On the initial screen, you can enter your selection criteria for selecting the confirmations that you want to reprocess. Possible selection criteria are: Production order, plant, confirmation, WBS element, sales order, MRP controller, work center, created by, created on.
Navigation
The screen for reprocessing confirmations is split into two areas:
Overview list of the confirmations
Detail screen for the selected confirmation
In the standard setting, the overview list is on the left and the detail display of the confirmation is on the right. To change the position of the overview list, choose (move the list in an anti-clockwise direction, select the position of the overview list). This last setting is saved for the particular user who created it and is used again the next time the function is called up.
Reprocessing
The confirmation that you have chosen from the overview (cursor position) is displayed in the detail screen. In the detail screen, you can remove the error in the confirmation.
The following confirmations can be reprocessed:
Order confirmation
Operation confirmation
Time event confirmation
Activity confirmation
The layout of the detail screen is determined by the confirmation that you are currently processing. The layout can be set up flexibly for an operation confirmation (see Single Screen Entry).
Display error
To display a long text about the error for each confirmation, position the cursor on the confirmation and choose .
Check confirmation
You can check one or more confirmations. To check confirmations, select them and choose . In the Status field on the overview list, the result of the check is displayed with a symbol.
Delete confirmation
If a confirmation is not to be posted because, for example, it has entered the SAP System by mistake, you can delete it. To do this, select the confirmation and choose . The confirmation is flagged for deletion and is deleted when you save.
Delete a line
To delete confirmations from the overview that you do not want to process at the moment, choose . The confirmation is, however, retained for reprocessing at a later stage.
2.Cost Determination Error Processing
Use
You use this function to gather information about errors in cost determination and if necessary to repeat it.
If errors occurred when determining actual costs online, you can decide whether or not the confirmation and the error records are saved. If you are using Decoupling Confirmation Processes, the errors are recorded during the execution of the background job or during updating.
Features
This function includes:
An error log which displays the cost determination errors in detail
Errors are, for example: missing activity prices, invalid cost centers or incorrect assignment of an activity type to a cost center.
Rerunning cost determination
Starting a New Costing Run
       1.      Choose either
¡        Production orders: Logistics ® Production ® Shop Floor Control ® Confirmation ® Reprocessing ® Actual Costs
¡        Process orders: Logistics ® Production u2013 Process ® Process Order ® Confirmation ® Recalculate Actual Costs
       2.      Enter your selection criteria.
       3.      Choose (Execute).
       4.      Select the confirmation in question and choose (Error Log).
Analyze the errors.
       5.      If necessary remove the errors.
To remove the errors, you have to exit the reprocessing function.
       6.      Choose Production ® Shop Floor Control ® Confirmation ® Reprocessing ® Actual Costs or Production u2013 Process ® Process Order ® Confirmation ® Recalculate Actual Costs or open a new session.
       7.      Enter selection criteria for the confirmations for which you want to restart the actual cost calculation.
       8.      Choose (Execute).
       9.      Select the confirmation and choose (Save).
Failed Goods Movements Processing :
Use
This function allows you to process goods movements that failed when posting confirmations. After correcting any errors that occurred, you can then post the goods movements a second time.
Features
This function includes:
Detailed display of errors
Errors can be caused by insufficient information such as missing storage locations or missing batch numbers. Errors can also include locked material data, insufficient stock, or attempts to post goods movements in the wrong accounting period.
Opportunity to correct failed goods movements
Option of posting goods movements a second time
Reprocessing Goods Movements
       1.      Choose either
¡        Production orders: Logistics ® Production ® Shop Floor Control ® Confirmation ® Reprocessing ® Goods Movements
¡        Process orders: Logistics ® Production - Process ® Process Order ® Environment ® Material Movement ® Failed Goods Movements.
       2.      Enter your selection criteria:
       3.      Choose (Execute).
       4.      Select the goods movement that you want to reprocess.
       5.      Choose (Display Errors) to display the errors that have arisen, in detail. To leave the message, choose (Continue).
       6.      Select the required goods movements and make the necessary changes (for example, Edit ® Replace ® Storage location).
For example, you can delete incorrect goods movements.
When incorrect goods movements are deleted, the system does not carry out an automatic adjustment of reservations.
       7.      Choose (Save) to restart the execution of goods movements.
When you are reprocessing the goods movements for the confirmation, you can go to the goods movements overview. Choose Change Details, to change the goods movements.
Hope this details is enough for clearing your doubt.
Revert if any doubt and reward if useful.

Why the error happen I don't know....
Could you please help me to avoid this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,
Thank you for your help.
I got the solution of the problem I had!!
The cause of problem is that target profit center has locked by master. (check the lock indicator)
Therefore, process order has not costing error when calculated cost in COR2,COR1.
